Poetry of listening, Art Crimile and Odyssey through Chinese history: The films « sentimental values » trira trira, « The Mastermind » Keli Rajhard, « Resurrection » would Ghana – Culture

The fatigue is there.

Journalists cast, so those who drem on projections can be seen.

But enthusiasm is still dominated.

And here, before the final ceremony, part of the part of the last three authors, which can be easily found among Laureats on Saturday night.

Film anthropologist

Joakim Trier is undoubtedly one of the most exciting and most original film creators who shape and spread the landscape of modern film with its opus.

He comes from the Sineast family, so that the film studio has been a natural environment since childhood.

His love and passion for the skateboard, in which the champion in youth, transferred the film, making the first skate videos.

Before he started working on feature films, he spent time on school in London, in a prestigious national film and a TV school, and his career began his return to Norway.

It can be said to be said that it is not specially occupied by the plot of the story.

He feels and acts as an anthropologist who motivates human behavior and identity, as well as interpersonal interactions.

During the last 15 years, he made five films, each in his own way a very disturbing, intriguing and exciting personal story.

All his films, of which won the prestigious awards, are engaged in researching modern life in their complexity.

His works are a kind of psychological studies and he is full of empathy for the main heroes of his Story.

Trier is one of the few sineast running on the 35mm lane, and it uses many styles and influences, and its works are mostly characterized by a special sound space, complicated editing and directed, and approaching the viewer the process of thinking the main heroes.

Joakim Trer is most famous for itself from Oslo, although it occurred spontaneously, not on purpose.

The first part of the « Replay » from 2006. focused on two young men, buddy and writer – Filip and Erika, who want to see whether they have potential for great success and careers.

Others – « Oslo August31 » recorded a decisive day in the life of a fragile and damaged 34-year-old man, who believes that his time passed and wants to end it.

While the third – « the worst person in the world » from 2022. deals with the life of a young woman and her bunt against imposed social norms and expectations – until professional success needs to settle for romantic and reproduce.

All three films deal with memories, identity and time.

Being special, succeed and raised on the meritocratic ladder is the main preoccupation of the trier’s heroes.

All the opposite leads to anxiety, depression, feeling of failure and execution.

And in loneliness.

Minimalist style

The sixth film of Joakima trira with which he arrived in Khan – « sentimental values », is intimately, a touching and witty family research, memories and art as the forces of delivering and reconciliation.

It’s a drama about a broken family, after the death of the mother.

Two adult daughters – Nora (Reinsva) and Agnes (LilleAas) are grieving for their mother, when their absent father (Skarsgard) suddenly returns.

He has been disturbed by health for reunification and reconciliation – with it brings a scenario for a new feature film, his first direction in the last 15 years, with the idea that the main roll entrusts to his older daughter, recognized Nori actress.

At the same time, he imagined film filming in their family house.

Below the surface of this seemingly simple meeting, in key memories, cracks, silenced wounds, tensions, dissatisfaction, but also attempts to reconciliation are visited.

We are actually slowly detected by the emotional landscape of this family.

Each scene bears the weight of unspoken, as if the past is constantly peeling under the replica, quiet, but inevitable.

As in its previous works, TRIR does not offer answers.

He listens.

In that listening, poetry was born in that listening.

The acting team is fascinating, and in addition to these three main characters, there is Elle Fanning, with a notable stake of actress at the beginning of career.

It can be said that they are not acting but simply live their characters.

« Sentimental values » are a film about what we never know about time.

About the love we know we feel, but not to express.

About the life that shapes us, even when we think we keep it under control.

Trier does not have to come up, do not judge.

And in that testimony, it makes us alone, even for a moment, we become more careful witnesses of our own feelings.

There is no drastic crafts, nor the shining dialogues in her opus.

Her films are not violent and there are no sex scenes.

She is not provocative like Michael Mura.

He doesn’t shock, nor does he raise the storm.

Still, despite all this, Kelly Reichardt (Kelly Reichard) is one of the environments of an independent American film.

Favorizing the scarce, unbreaked aesthetics, contemplative tempo, subtle cultivated uncertainty and respecting Breson’s realism, unpretentious and quiet Americans imposed like a minimalist, purified film expression.

Its motto is that they are lies in dialogue, and the truth in visual display.

Working away from the conceited and pretentious mainstream, Kelly directed a dozen feature films that together define one of the emotionally and politically rarest acts in modern American cinema.

In celebrated films such as « old joy », « Vend and Luci » and « certain women », it has created a film language that in a unique way shows the subtle complexity of human relationships and paradoxes of American lifestyle.

An unpredictable, transient friendships are repeated through her opus, masterpieces in moments between those when the passions flock softly and those when they hasty, where the spoken vows lose their grill, but not their secret meanings.

This tension between contemplative silence and dramatic action defined by its cinema, makes it very close to Breson and the Oz.

Her world marks lost characters – marginals, forgotten and underestimated, often stranded in unpleasant landscapes and relationships.

Its lonely heroes will rarely see in cheap motels or in late intimate dinners because they inhabit more … like parking, banks, railways, chased by violated promises and abandoned dreams of freedom.

Visual spectacle

The latest work of Kelly Rajhard « The Mastermind » represents her first trip to the genre of artistic crime, located in 1970. in a quiet part of Massachusetts.

Main character James – James Muni (interpreted by Josh O’Conor), an unemployed carpenter, decides to embark on his first large artistic robbery.

Together with two pajtos, he steals four canvases from the museum in the middle of a white day.

However, the retention of stolen artworks is shown as a greater challenge from theft itself, which forces him to escape and deal with the consequences of its actions.

The action takes place in the context of the Vietnam War and a growing movement for the persons of women, which adds the complexity of the story.

Rajhard explores how social and political changes of that time affect individuals on the margins, which is a common topic in her films.

Although it deals with the topic of the artwork « The Mastermind » reserves a recognizable minimalist style of this exceptional authors, subtle dialogues and focus on the characters fighting with its own identity and a place in society.

BI Gan, a brilliant Chinese filmmaker, presented its latest film « Resurrection », hypnotic, visually astonishing Odyssey through times, dreams and Chinese history.

In a dystopian world where the dreaming causes the exception: Fantasmer (Jackson YEE), a figure that defies the rules and continuously reincarnated through various epochs 20th century.

His journey leads us through key moments of Chinese history, including transition to a new millennium, symbolizing the transition to capitalism while retaining political conference.

The film is a mosaic of miraculous sequences: from the expressionist world of the film, through the war conflicts in the mirror store, to meet the spirit of bitterness in a remote temple.

The visual spectacle culminates in the club called « Sunrise », leaving the audience in a state of amazing.

« Resurrection » is an art brave film that does not offer clear answers, but calls for an introspective journey through the layers of reality and illusion.

Gan would confirm his reputation by film poetry, providing audiences experience that is puzzling and deeply emotionally.

About the festival, atmosphere and palm trees, several words arrive on Monday.
